There's a trick to the "graceful" exit.  It begins with the vision to recognize when a job, a life stage, or a relationship is over -- and let it go.  It means leaving what's over without denying its validity or its past importance to our lives.  It involves a sense of future, a belief that every exit line is an entry, that we are moving up, rather than out. ~ Ellen Goodman

I want to break out -- to leave this cycle of infection and death.  I want to be taken in love: so taken that you and I, and death, and life will be gathered inseparable, into the radiance of what we would become. ~ Thomas Pynchon
